Lurlene tells Kate that her phone and electric have been cut off due to lack of payment for 4 months and she has no more money to pay them with.

Ruby visits Phil Roberts at KVIK. Paige tells Elliot that she slept with producers that Peter set her up with including Jack and that her friendship with Elliot means so much she doesn't want to lose him by lying and he says it would take a lot of her to lose him.
